Asset Issuance is the formal process of creating and distributing new digital assets or tokens on a blockchain network. This involves defining the asset’s properties, supply, and transfer rules, typically through smart contracts. It represents the initial entry of a digital value unit into circulation, whether as a cryptocurrency, security token, or utility token. The process dictates how new units are generated and made available to participants.
